on 6-9-2008 3:40 AM Peter Farrell spake the following:
 I generally will do one of two things in addition to my normal backups.

1. run a cron that exports the database, then gzip it - I rsync that
off to another machine.
2. I replicate the database to other machines in the same tier.

I agree about the CF failure as well. No biggie. I would copy it's
partition somewhere else once a week for a potential restore of just
such a failure.

-Peter
I could see the CF as a faster boot, but it might just be easier to software raid 2 drives and not worry about the mix. One drive fails, you swap and resync, 2 drives fail, well you did say something about backups! ;-P
